HGH Fragment 176-191 (5mg) Dosage Protocol

HGH Fragment 176-191 is a modified form of amino acids 176-191 of the human growth hormone polypeptide. Research suggests it has lipolytic properties without the diabetogenic effects of full HGH.

Quickstart Highlights
Reconstitute

Add 2.5 mL bacteriostatic water → 2 mg/mL (2000 mcg/mL)

Daily Range

250-500 mcg daily, split into 2 doses

Easy Measuring

At 2 mg/mL: 12.5 units = 250 mcg, 25 units = 500 mcg

Storage

Lyophilized: -20°C; Reconstituted: 2-8°C for up to 3 weeks

Dosing & Reconstitution Guide
Educational guide for reconstitution and daily dosing based on research literature
WeekDaily DoseUnits (per injection)
Weeks 1-2250 mcg daily12.5 units AM fasted

Weeks 5-12500 mcg daily250 mcg AM + 250 mcg PM
Reconstitution Steps
  1. 1Draw 2.5 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe
  2. 2Inject slowly down the vial wall to prevent foaming
  3. 3Gently swirl until fully dissolved - do not shake
  4. 4Label with date and concentration, refrigerate immediately
How This Works

HGH Fragment 176-191 represents the lipolytic region of growth hormone. Research indicates it promotes fat breakdown without affecting blood glucose or IGF-1 levels. It works by mimicking the fat-burning action of natural GH without the growth-promoting effects.

Potential Benefits & Effects
Observations from preclinical and clinical literature
  • Targets fat metabolism specifically
  • Does not affect IGF-1 or insulin
  • No hyperglycemic effects
  • May preserve lean tissue

Storage Instructions

Lyophilized

Store at -20°C, protected from light

Reconstituted

Refrigerate at 2-8°C, use within 3 weeks

More fragile than full peptides - handle carefully

Important Notes
  • •Research compound - not FDA approved
